MMA stars set to test skills on stage

ManamaA stacked fight card with some global MMA stars, as well as some of the finest middle-eastern fighters are set to test their skills on the big stage in Bahrain at Brave 2: Dynasty on December 2 at Khalifa Sports City in Isa Town.

Brave president Mohammed Shahid had promised to bring the world to Bahrain, before taking Bahrain to the world and he’s done exactly that by creating such a multicultural fight card.

It will be headlined by the first ever world title fight between two world class, international MMA fighters, Mexico’s Masio Fullen and Iraq’s Alan Omer.

These men will battle for the featherweight title on this night and will be anchored by a thrilling undercard featuring some undefeated stars from around the world, such as Brazil’s Alex Da Silva Coelho and the Turkish/German Ottman Azaitar.

In their first ever light heavyweight bout Brave has also welcomed Ireland’s Ben Forsyth and America’s Tyree Fortune. Both these fighters are young and have major credentials in the sport, with Forsyth an IMMAF World Championship gold medalist and Tyree Fortune one of the highest ranked wrestlers in the United States of America. Also from the States is the world renowned Walel Watson and the “Ginger looking to Injure”, Daniel Swain.

If that wasn’t enough, perhaps the most highly anticipated fight of all features England’s Carl Booth and Dagestan’s Gadzhimusa Gaziev.

These men are rising stars in MMA and known for their punching power.

Both heavy-hitting welterweights will be looking for a big knock-out at Brave 2.

Also on the card are Egypt’s Ahmed Fares who looks to make a big impression in his Brave debut, and French-Algerian Elias Boudegzdame looking to build upon his promising record, where he has already amassed 12 professional wins.

Representing Sweden is Erik Carlsson and Filipino fans will have plenty to cheer about with Jeremy Pacatiw and Troy Bantiag both fighting on the card.

Also in the mix are the Indian/Canadian star from Tristar gym, Gurdarshan Mangat, Jordanian Jarrah A Silawi and another exciting Mexican fighter, Cristian Quinonez.
